special bench on 40(a)(ia)

[taxqueries]

as per the official website of itat.nic.in, a special bench in the case of Merilyn Shipping & Transport is formed on interpretation of the word 'payable' in section 40(a)(ia) . The date of hearing was 12.12.2011. How can I know the status of this case i.e whether the hearing is concluded.

Well, the easiest way is to contact the Asst. Registrar of the Vishakapatnam Bench. His contact details are given here:

Income Tax Appellate Tribunal

Tel Phone & Fax Nos. 0891-2795058 Fax: 0891-2525961 
E-Mail ID vizag.bench@itat.nic.in

Send him an email or call him up. I am sure you will get an answer. Don't forget to update us also with the info  ;)
